DEAN JOHNSON DEATH PROBE CONTINUES

This piece from the WAHSINGTON BLADE offers the most detailed updates of the incidents which led to Dean's death. I guess the toxicology reports take months, so they are still waiting on that info. There is a very strange passage in which the wheelchair-bound john at whose place Dean and another escort died poders what the press will refer to him as.

“During the course of the ride, Mr. Saleh stated to members of the Metropolitan Police Department, ‘What is the media going to call me? The gimp black widow?’” the affidavit quotes him as saying. It says Saleh also stated during the ride to the police station, “I guess I won’t have any more dinner parties.”

TRANSVESTITES ATTACK MCDONALDS

This is insane! Talk about a Big Mac Attack! At one point the employees doused the girls with french fry grease! So the girls combed it through their wigs and fleeced looking sensational! But what self-respecting queen takes off her heels to fight? Um, I mean, besides Flotilla Debarge.

DUFFY: MERCY

LET ME DOWNGRADE YOU

I thought this drag queen was serious until it ate a potato chip off of it's shoulder! This a mock-video for Beyonce's latest UPGRADE U, which has to be one of the worst non-songs since, well, her last single, GET ME BODIED. The video is cute for a minute, but what really held my interest is the shameful poverty of the lyrics. Not that I'm gonna look for quality lyrics from Beyonce, but does she actually utter the words:

I can do for you what Martin did for the peopleRan by the men but the women keep the tempo?

Utterly retarded! Darlin', you're real pretty, but I think you'd need a brain before you put yourself into Martin Luther King's shoes. Here are the ghastly lyrics for the bridge:

You need a real woman in your lifeThat's a good lookTaking care, home is still flyThat's a good lookImma help you build up your accountThats a good lookBetter yet a hood look,Ladies thats a good lookWhen you're in them big meetings for the millsThats a good lookIt take me just to compliment the dealThats a good look

At what point do we have to say that Beyonce is crap? For me, it was after I read that! I'm sure that Martin Luther King would be really proud of a black artist with nothing to say except "I'm a walking status symbol", when one-half of blacks are not graduating from high school. What million dollar deal meetings will they be in? Don't worry about it, girl. You got yours. The funny thing is, when I first saw that dog-tag with Upgrade U engraved on it held in Beyonce's admittedly sensuous mouth, I was reminded of Nelly's video which raised so many eyebrows when he swiped a credit card in a female dancer's crack. Shit! Beyonce don't need no man to turn her into a ho-this "independent woman" can do that to herself! One time the dumb bitch actually pronounced feminism "fenimism", while advocating it. More like abdicating it.

Bring back India Arie! No, she's not a glamazon who looks great in any outfit and dances well, but she could write and sing and had a heart and a brain!

I think this country is headed for race riots. Consider the ingredients: take a few generations of blacks and latinos with a surly hip-hop attitude and it's fondness for violence and gangstas and then constantly dangle luxury brands in front of them, brands which pay for their inclusion in songs like this. (Beyonce later name-checks Audemars Piguet. I'm too trashy to know what this is.) Of course, even with the high school education which half won't complete, they'll never be able to afford these high-priced items, but at least it gives them a goal. An empty goal which is hardly in keeping with Martin Luther King's. Or any other christian leader's. Oops, I forgot. The most popular christian leaders in this country today anchor their sermons on get rich quick schemes.

As an atheist, I never thought I'd be quoting the bible, but since so many christians can't understand their own religion, remember this old gem?

I tell you the truth, it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God. Matthew 19:24.

MAC AD SPOOF

And if you are interested in politics, today woul be an excellent day to check out Air America Radio. The news just broke last night about former White House press secretary Scott McClellan's explosive allegations that Bush, Cheney, Rove and others all knew about Valerie Plame's outing. Randi Rhodes will be on fire today from 3:00-6:00 Eastern time. Rachel Madow has an excellent show which follows, with Richard Greene's CLOUT after that. Click HERE to listen.

BUNION UPDATE

The DAILY NEWS GOTCHA! column got me good on Sunday. In case you can't read the blurb, it says:

Looks like Bullseye the Target mascot taught drag legend Lady Bunny how to beg at the Out 100 awards in NYC, proving that you CAN teach an old dog new tricks! Ba-dum-dum.

I thought the caption was pretty hilarious!

As my notoriety continues to soar, I will also be honored to appear as a balloon n the popular Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade. (Actually this is an image of my Hallowe'en costume which was photoshopped by a myspace friend who used to alter images for the Weekly World News!)

And yesterday I posed for an upcoming photobook to benefit Cambodian child prostitutes. Called Portrait of a Lipstick Queen, photographer Michael Angelo is shooting a bevy of beauties (and me!) all wearing the red lipstick which is the mark of the child hookers. Other models include Dita Von Teese, Susan Sarandon, Darryl Hannah and possibly....DOLLY PARTON!

I was immediately drawn to the cause since a friend (John Mark Karr) visited Cambodia recently and told me of the horrors involving the epidemic of child prostitution. John claimed that the prices for these girls' hairless cunts were astronomical! So if I can lend my talents as a model to lower the prices of these kids and thereby encourage tourism to the poverty-stricken region, I happy to help!

SEX SCANDAL ROCKS FAMED MEGACHURCH

DECATUR, Ga. (Nov. 19) - The 80-year-old leader of a suburban Atlanta megachurch is at the center of a sex scandal of biblical dimensions: He slept with his brother's wife and fathered a child by her.

Members of Archbishop Earl Paulk's family stood at the pulpit of the Cathedral of the Holy Spirit at Chapel Hill Harvester Church a few Sundays ago and revealed the secret exposed by a recent court-ordered paternity test.

DISCO TEA TONIGHT!

AND FOR THIS WEDNESDAY, HERE IS MY FAVORITE AD FOR MY SHOW EVER! WHERE ON EARTH DID THEY FIND A PHOTO OF A NAKED LATINO HUNK ON A CELLPHONE AND BROCCOLI? I GUESS I'M GONNA FIND OUT IF CUM OF A BROCCOLI FAN TASTES LIKE BROCCOLI. OR IS THAT ASPARAGUS? OR BROCCOLI AND CHEESE? OR WHO CARES IF THEY LOOK LIKE THIS? LOOKS LIKE I MIGHT GET STUFFED A LITTLE EARLY THIS THANKSGIVING!

BUSH'S ANTI-DRUG PSA

BIKE-SEXUAL

A man caught trying to have sex with his bicycle has been sentenced to three years on probation.Robert Stewart, 51, admitted a sexually aggravated breach of the peace by conducting himself in a disorderly manner and simulating sex.

Sheriff Colin Miller also placed Stewart on the Sex Offenders Register for three years.

Mr Stewart was caught in the act with his bicycle by cleaners in his bedroom at the Aberley House Hostel in Ayr.

Gail Davidson, prosecuting, told Ayr Sheriff Court: "They knocked on the door several times and there was no reply.

"They used a master key to unlock the door and they then observed the accused wearing only a white t-shirt, naked from the waist down.

"The accused was holding the bike and moving his hips back and forth as if to simulate sex."

LAINIE KAZAN FOR AQUA VELVA

FROM YOUTUBE:

Lainie Kazan, who understudied Barbra Streisand in the original Broadway production of Funny Girl and who has been so wonderfully hilarious in such parts as Bette Midler's mother in Beaches, Fran Drescher's aunt in The Nanny, co-starring with Divine in Lust in the Dust, and Nia Vardalos in My Big Fat Greek Wedding, not to mention guesting as Jerry Stillers love interest in King of Queens, and as Aunt Honey on Will and Grace, is looking (and sounding) HOT here in an old Aqua Velva commercial, and a couple of added pictures at the end.

Enrique throws himself into his work

Enrique Iglesias has been over here in UKdoing concerts at Wembley and hitting theLondon clubs. Sadly nothing of much notehappened which could beat our favourite everstory of a Enrique Iglesias gig. Enrique wasdoing a concert in Rome and his people arrangedfor some models and pretty girls to be stationedin front of the left-hand side of the stage, so he could dive in for some great photo and TV shots.The crew reminded him when he went on, "left side,Enrique". He thought they meant stage left.So when Iglesias dived off the stage for his photoopp, he wasn't where he thought he'd be. Instead,he landed right in the disabled fans area.

I'VE BEEN TRANNY-IZED!

AREN'T WE ALL?

BOUFFANT FONDANT

Ya earn something new every day!

Bouffant hair is becoming increasing popular with today's current hairstyles and it gets its roots from the 60's. The 50's were a time of more conservative styles for hair and then came the next decade which brought about many changes in culture, fashion, and style. This style was known for its height and fullness at the crown of the head which was quite the change from the pixie cuts and ponytails from the prior decade. Women of the 1960's spent a great deal of time to achieve this poofy hair and read on to find out how they did it.

Keep in mind that this was a time before hand held blow-dryers and so there was much more preparation involved. Styling usually began the night before and usually women slept with rollers in their hair. Apparently looking good was much more important than sleeping comfortably.

This picture of this young woman was taken for high school graduation in 1962. This was a very typical look back then.

I happen to know this gal as she is a close relative and I asked her to share her stories about hairstyling way back when and here they are.

First of all, people in this decade were thrifty with money out of necessity and so the use of home-made hair products was common. To make hair more likely to hold the curl and style, some opted to purchase a product called Dippity-do. This was a strong holding hair gel, and much to my surprise, this product is still available through some online merchants. This product worked well if applied to damp hair prior to rolling hair around the rollers. However, those who could not afford to buy this product, made their own.

Water was placed in a saucepan, about 2 cups. Then about 1/4 cup of sugar was added and then this mixture was heated to a boil and then left to sit until cool. A comb was dipped into this potion and combed through the strands before hair was wound around the rollers. A hairnet was placed on the head before bed. In the morning after the rollers were removed, the locks were back-combed at the roots to get that ratted appearance. The top layer was smoothed over and then lots of Aquanet (hairspray) was applied. Hair was very stiff and had no movement. I hate to think about the outcome if one was stuck out in a downpour: a sticky gooey mess.

LISA LAMPANELLI ROASTS FLAVA FLAV

GOD HATES FAGS?

NOT ACCORDING TO JESUS AND HIS LAWYERS.

Interesting take on the multi-million dollar ruling agiant the Phelps family church--you know, the ones who picket soldier's funerals becuse they feel that the soldiers' deaths are God's revenge on America for tolerating gays. Phelps is appealing, but I don't see how a small church of fanatics can continue to run after being slapped with that $11 million settlement by one of the soldier's families.

BILLY BEYOND PHOTO SHOW

Downtown nightlife personality and DJ is making uptown art.

Billy Erb (AKA DJ Billy Beyond) is presenting a collection of his photographs with an opening reception on November the 8th from 6 – 8 PM. Most recently known for his work as Art Director and Principal Photographer for Amy Sedaris’ “I Like You,” Billy has turned his exacting eye onto two subjects: Chandeliers and New York’s freshest faced model, Chandler Moss.“It’s ancient grease,” says the somewhat sarcastic multi-talent, “the pictures are inspired by a quote from George Balanchine : ‘Classicism is enduring because it is impersonal.’ I chose ancient Greece as the setting for Chandler’s classic and timeless beauty… plus, when you throw a laurel wreath on their head it becomes art, not porno.”

The show promises limited edition prints of chandeliers and model Chandler in roles including the dirty slave and Narcissus.“I read about the recently discovered Oxyrinchus Papyri and I thought…ANYTHING named ‘Oxyrinchus Paparyi’ has got to be good. This is the original version of the Narcissus myth and it’s all gay. The hetero slant wasn’t added till later.”

Join us for drinks and food on Thursday the 8th of November from 6 to 10 PM.RIOT Manhattan hosts a gallery space with rotating artists monthly.

Now either Billy is extremely gifted or has waaaay too much time on his hands or both. There are not 1, not 2, but 3 fun youtube trailers for the photo show to give you a taste!

TRAILER 2 (Featuring THE NAME GAME)

And check out Billy's other work on his brand new website, BILLYERB.COM. His subjects range from Loretta Hogg to Princess Zoraya to desert still lifes. Or should that be still lives?

WHO IS THIS ACTRESS?

I've been snapping photos of my TV again, and I worship MURDER, SHE WROTE. Not only is Angela Lansbury as Jessica Fletcher a treasure, she always features her Hollywood pals as guest stars on the shows. I don't recognize this one. Can anyone name her? She looks fantastic with those platinum locks and caked-on mascara.

Another MURDER episode featured the beloved Charlotte Rae--that hand gesture!

And, the bizarrely severe Janet Leigh, who was an ultra-glamorous spider-monkey by this point.

NEW YORKERS!

Please click HERE to send Senator Chuck Schumer an email insisting that he does NOT support proposed Attorney-General Mukasey tomorrow. After initially opposing his confirmation, Schumer now says he'll vote for him. Let your senator know that he should not support a man who can't define waterboarding as illegal torture.

We just got rid of that scum Gonzalez. And this only takes a seond to let them know that we don't want to join rhe ranks of Pol Pot, the Nazis and the KGB, all of whom have used this interrogation method. And we've only got a second, since the vote is Tuesday. An overwhelming # of emails might register with Chuck and Diane.

IT'S IN HIS ASS--THAT'S WHERE IT IS

Staffers on Capitol Hill are howling over an e-mail sent from Sen. Larry Craig's office Friday about a watch found -- guess where -- in the men's room!

The e-mail, which is being forwarded pretty much all over the place on Capitol Hill, is from Pat Olsen, the embattled Idaho Republican's administrative director.

The e-mail announced that a watch was found in the men's room on the fifth floor of the Hart Senate Office Building, where Craig's office is located. On its face, the message suggests that a male staffer (possibly even Sen. Craig, the notorious men's room foot tapper) found the watch.

Olsen confirmed to The Sleuth that she authored the message. Without divulging her e-mail address, here is the text:

And can someone please explain to me why anyone would think it was a good idea to put rabbit teeth on a witch, the kind Bette Midler wore in HOCUS POCUS?

MAMIETAGE?!?!!

Mamie Van Doren is launching a wine line? The platinum B-movie stunner from the 60's is certainly vintage, so maybe her appeal, like a fine wine, will improve with age. Cuz except for a recent Playboy spread--I know all you fags read it religiously--she's been out of the limelight for half a century! Cuckoo! Cuckoo! Now I can understand a Britney/Lindsay booze line. But Mamie's will certainly be a collector's item! And in keeping with her stripper image, the labels peel away to reveal more of Mamie's physique. So cute! Here's an invite to her opening in LA.

"Well, Tommy, I'm sure to find out her name sooner or later, so you mayas well tell me now. Was it Tina Minetti?"

"I can not say."

"Was it Teresa Volpe?"

"I'll never tell."

"Was it Nina Capelli?"

"I'm sorry, but I cannot name her."

"Was it Maria Piriano?"

"My lips are sealed."

"Was it Rosa Di Angelo, then?"

"Please, Father, I cannot tell you."

The priest sighs in frustration. "You're very tight lipped, TommyFunachelli, and I admire that. But you've sinned and have to atone. Youcannot be an altar boy now for 4 months. Now you go and behaveyourself."

Tommy walks back to his pew, and his friend Nino slides over andwhispers,
